© 2020 Virtual Intergroup of Overeaters Anonymous
The OA Preamble:
“Overeaters Anonymous is a Fellowship of individuals who,
through shared experiences, strength, and hope, are
recovering from complusive overeating. We welcome everyone
who wants to stop eating compulsively. There no dues or fees
for members; we are self-supporting through our own
contributions, neither soliciting nor accepting outside
donations. OA is not affiliated with any public or private
organization, political movement, ideology, or reiligous
doctrine; we take no position on outside issues. Our primary
purpose is to abstain from compulsive eating and complusive
food behaviors and to carry the message of recovery throught
the Twelve Steps of OA to those who still suffer. Recovery is
removal of the need to engage in compulsive eating
behaviors.”
Unity and Diversity
Let’s be mindful of OA’s Unity with Diversity Policy, which
respects our differences, yet unites us in the solution to our
common problem. Whatever problem you may have with
food, you are welcome at this meeting, regardless of race,
creed, nationality, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation,
or any other trait.
You are not alone anymore!
No matter what your problem with food
Compulsive overeating, under-eating,
Food addicition, anorexia, bulimia, binge eating, or over
exercising.
— We have a solution
